4-step process: #HR Interview (Positive Experience) The process begins with an initial HR interview, which typically focuses on understanding the candidate's background, skills, and how they align with the job role. During this stage, the HR representative gauges the candidate’s general fit for the company, often asking about career goals, past experience, and salary expectations. This step went well, with the HR giving positive feedback or showing enthusiasm about the candidate’s potential. #Manager Interview (Lack of Confidence in the Company's Future) In the second stage, interviews with the hiring manager. However, in this case, the manager expressed uncertainty or a lack of confidence in the company’s future. This could be reflected in their demeanor, comments about the company’s direction, or concerns about its stability or growth. Such a conversation might make uneasy, as it raises questions about job security and the company's long-term prospects. ---->Rejection #Take-home challenge #Culture fit interview Offer
